Howdy, I'm Mason
Life long car addict and staunch advocate for the manual transmission. After teaching family members and friends how to drive stick, he realized there was a huge issue in Austin.
​
No, not gentrification (well, that too), but there's thousands of people who want to learn manual, but don't have access to a teacher or a car with a stick. He started Learn Manual ATX to solve this issue and get more people driving the greatest transmission.
​
He also writes biographies about himself in the third person and isn't that great at website design, apologies.
